People being against ipods in such a passionate way is really funny. If you don't want one, just don't get it. I don't have one and that's it. It's just a thing that's there, if the guy who uses it is a moron is not the ipod's fault just like the mere fact of using a walkman doesn't make you great.
Personally, I do not miss walkmans at all, specially having to rewind tapes with a pen to save on batteries and having to carry around a bunch of tapes, fuck that shit.

My girlfriend has an Ipod nano, now all computers in the household have itunes installed and it keeps bugging me about updates and shit..._________________What beats global warming? nuclear winter

I still use a Sony walkman almost everyday. I have a lot of awesome albums on tapes, demos and compilations and I love listening to them while walking to work. It's great! I also have a cheap ipod shuffle, but the battery always dies and I become bored of the mix, so I just forget it and go back to my walkman haha._________________The Goat of fire in me ablaze

please don't buy this!!!
a friend of mine wanted to make this walkman as a gift for me, but the sound was VERY bad...
It was just to convert tapes to mp3 - but if you want to do this don't choose the walkman above!

Luckily I do have two old walkmans at my home. My very first walkman was destroyed unfortunately - after many years of use. But I just asked friends and their families and I've got three walkmans for free - it's great how many people still have this players but just don't use them.
1 of the 3 walkmans was rubbish again, just bad sound... but the other players are good enough for a good analogue experience.
